Popcorn Hat Players Children's Theatre
Popcorn Hat Players (PHP) Children’s Theatre has been entertaining children and their families since 1993, bringing fairy tales, folk tales and fables to new audiences every year. Using creative comedy and improvisation, the Players write original adaptations and breathe new life into unforgettable stories. PHP presents 7 mainstage productions each year at Gamut Theatre, and takes 2 productions on tour from rural areas to inner-city venues.
